Hippie flowers and ninja moves

June 17, 2015

The warm weather has disappeared completely so tunic and long pants are a necessity and gave me an opportunity to try combining two gorgeous patterns.

I made the tunic using Sophie tunic pattern by Sis Boom. I used the fabric with the smaller pattern as a basic fabric and added the other fabric to the cuffs and collar. There was a lot of left-over fabric, so I decided to make a pair of pants using “Peruspöksyt” pattern from a book “Juju – Erilainen lastenvaatekirja” by Mari Savio & Kati Rapia. The 110 cm pattern ended up being way too big, so I added side seams and took away 2 inches from both sides. An elastic waist keeps the pants up and a yellow ribbon adds some cheeriness.

S found it really hard to stand still. It seems that the tunic & pants combination was particularly suitable to some wild ninja moves!
